San Francisco Gender Discrimination Attorneys

The glass ceiling still exists at many San Francisco businesses. Companies continue to pay female employees less frequently than male employees, promote women less frequently than men, and create work environments that are hostile to women.

Gender Discrimination and the Law

Gender discrimination is illegal under California's Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) and federal laws under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. It is against the law to:

• Treat women differently from men in the workplace.
• Pay male employees more than female employees for similar work.
• Unfairly promote male employees ahead of female employees who are similarly qualified.
• Have policies that have a disparate impact on male and female employees.
• Discriminate against pregnant employees.

Employers can discriminate against women employees in many different ways. For example, a company may reserve certain types of jobs for employees of a certain sex. Gender discrimination may include the creation or toleration of a work environment that is intimidating, offensive or hostile to women.

You do not have to put up with gender discrimination in the workplace. The Armstrong Law Firm's discrimination lawyers seek compensation for wrongs you have experienced in the workplace.

Furthermore, your employer cannot take adverse actions against you because you report sexual harassment. If you are terminated, disciplined or harassed because you reported gender discrimination or supported another person's claim, you may have a separate legal action against your employer.

The Armstrong Law Firm was very knowledgeable and aggressive in representing me against a company that previously refused to take my claims seriously until I hired Kelly Armstrong and her lawyers. I am very happy with the resolution of my case and recommend them to all employees who need excellent lawyers."

There were five of us female employees who were sexually harassed at work … for years. The daily sexual comments, cat calls, leering, staring, grabbing and gross remarks made us feel sick and like we were just objects. Management didn't take it seriously until we hired Kelly Armstrong of The Armstrong Law Firm. She took over our case and made the other side pay all of us for our emotional distress. I highly recommend her to all sexual harassment victims who want her to fight for them to the finish."

My manager began harassing and discriminating against me after I told him I was pregnant … He began trying to set me up for termination by falsely accusing me of poor work performance … Kelly Armstrong and her team achieved a financial resolution for me that sent a clear message to my employer and allowed me to resume my life in a positive way."
